A born inventor and life hacker, Cheryl Hines is an incorrigible tinkerer, particularly in the kitchen. Not satisfied to buy things ready-made, she will create her own foods and treats for her large family. Her books stem from these tinkering sessions. Her most recent book, Easy Granola Bar Recipe , reveals how she makes a no-bake granola bar that is out of this world. The genius behind the recipe is that it is a designer template to create your own bars. It puts you in the driver seat! When she is not inventing in the kitchen, Cheryl is busy caring for her family. Home schooling takes up a great deal of her time but she always finds time to write and create!
